Haven't received anything yet but not really expecting an offer with my v.shitty umat even though rural so would like some closure to the WSU opportunity.
 
Did interview offer emails progressively come out or did people receive theirs around 3:20 as per the first person who wrote on here?

3:20 ish.

Also does anyone else get the error: "Error: You did not enter a valid UMAT ID number." when trying to access the system? I know you can't book till late on, but i'd like to check out how everything is setup beforehand.
Cheers!
 
When do the interstate offers come out?
 
If we haven't received a UWS offer by now is it right to say we most likely will not be offered one (assuming the candidate is from NSW)?

As a non-rural, non-standard South Australian with 65/68/59 - 97th%ile
Should I be worried I don't have any email yet?

That looks definitely worthy of an offer. Last year I received email below on same day 16-Oct, let's hope this year UWS has decided to notify interstate applicants later.

Dear Xxxxxx

I am pleased to advise that you have met the UMAT threshold required as part of the selection process for the UWS Bachelor of Medicine/Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS).

Please note that for you to progress to an actual interview, your final academic results will need to meet the ATAR threshold of 95.5 (or equivalent academic rank) when all results are finalised by December this year.

As you have an address that is outside New South Wales, your interview would take place on Thursday 28 January, 2016. This means you can first determine whether you have been successful in obtaining a university place in your home State. Note – in the case of your being offered and accepting a home State university placement, this would not jeopardise any subsequent offer that may be made to you from Western Sydney.

Do you know of anyone who got an interview offer after Oct 16th last year?
 
In the original email UWS sent a few weeks back it said that:

We "will commence the process of advising those who have been successful in gaining an interview within a few weeks. This is an iterative process and will not be finalised until the end of November.
Those who are not successful in gaining an interview will be notified by end of November."

This suggests (as well as the fact that people with exceptionally high scores haven't heard anything) to me that the offers are being rolled out progressively until the end of the month.
 
I recieved an offer with a 61/59/66/187 umat 95%
GWS/nonstandard applicant
I was hesitant that they may have used the 10% S3 this year and worried I wouldnt get an offer but it turns out I made the cut anyway or it is still 50% for S3.

UWS have stated that the interview offer process over a period of time so I wouldnt stress if you have a high score but no offer yet, maybe interstates are a later round?
 
WSU Interview Offer: Yes
73, 59, 66 = 98%ile
GWS: No
Rural : No
Applicant type: Non-standard
Interstate : No

Who knows what weightings but possibly this year they use a lower cutoff for GWS applicants?
